Editorial policy

What we publish

We publish reporting, explainers and practical guides across our technology, business, finance, health, science and guides sections.

We publish one edition per market. Every article belongs to a market, and that market is part of its address: an article written for Indian institutions is published under the India edition, not inside the United States one. We currently publish for United States and India. A market edition is written to its own market's institutions, spelling and conventions, and it names the sources behind it. We do not write a single article and present it as though it applied everywhere, and we do not republish one market's article under another market's name.

We do not publish content that is primarily written to rank, and we do not generate articles in bulk to cover more of the search landscape. Every article is written because we think it answers a question worth answering.

Who writes and who checks

Every article carries a named author, linked to an author page listing their role, areas of expertise and complete published work. We do not publish unattributed articles, and we do not invent author credentials. Where we have not verified an author's background, we say less about them rather than more.

Needs a named editor

An individual editorial review and sign-off step has not yet been formally assigned. Articles are currently reviewed as part of the publication workflow rather than by a named editor, and this policy will be updated when that changes.

Sourcing

Where an article rests on external research, it links those sources at the point of use and repeats them in a references list with the publisher and, where known, the date we accessed them. We prefer primary sources — filings, published studies, official datasets, court records and direct documentation — over commentary about them. In a market edition those sources are that market's own: a United States article draws on United States filings and agencies, and an India article on Indian ones.

We distinguish between what a source says and what we conclude from it. Where evidence is thin or contested, the article says so rather than smoothing it over.

Dates and updates

Every article shows the date it was published. When we make a substantive revision we show a separate “Updated” date and change the modification date in the page's structured data, so a reader can tell when something was last touched. We do not update the publication date, and we do not silently edit text to remove an error.

Corrections

Factual corrections are recorded on our corrections page with the date, the article, what was wrong and what we changed. We correct substantive errors as well as typos; an error that changes a reader's decision is corrected whether or not it is embarrassing.

Commercial relationships

Anikaay does not accept payment in exchange for coverage, and does not publish sponsored content or advertorial that is not labelled as such. Where a conflict of interest exists that could affect an article, we disclose it on the article itself.

AI-assisted content

This site is built to support automated research and publishing. Anything produced with automated assistance is reviewed and is the responsibility of the named author, who verifies every factual claim before it is published. Automated tooling does not sign articles, and it does not bypass this policy.
